COBOL Source Code Formatter
The COBOLFormatter tool reorganizes COBOL source text files to neatly indent code blocks according to their nesting level. It is a member of SD's family of Source Code Formatters.

- Formatted code compiles and executes exactly like unformatted code
- Specification of indentation step distance
- Specification of arbitrary input tab column positions

The COBOL Source File Browser not only formats COBOL for web pages but also provides a hyperlinked cross reference for every identifier, leading to its definition point and complete list of references to the identifier.
